Abstract :

Alkali Treatment Is Important Because It Enhances The Interfacial Bonding Between The Flax Fabrics And The Epoxy Matrix. This Process Removes Impurities And Increases The Surface Roughness Of The Fibers, Leading To Improved Mechanical Properties Of The Laminate. As A Result, The Treated Woven Flax Epoxy Laminates Exhibit Better Strength And Durability Compared To Untreated Ones. The Optimization Process Involves Systematically Adjusting Various Parameters Such As Alkali Concentration, Ply Orientation To Enhance The Mechanical Properties Of The Laminates With 3mm Thickness. By Conducting Experiments And Analyzing The Results, This Work Can Identify The Optimal Conditions That Improve Tensile Strength, Flexural Strength. This Method Ensures That The Low Percentage Up To 5% Treated Laminates Perform Better In Practical Applications While Maintaining Their Environmental Friendliness. Key Words: Woven Flax Fabric, Hand Lay-up, Optimization, Ply-orientation, Tensile, Flexural Strength
